Useful if you want to now how things work and learn some about binary.

Wasn't able to write code last half of the session because we didn't have time.

Gave practical examples of how we can adjust our thinking about math and algorithms.

Great talk. I particularly liked how it was more intermediate/advanced and how some interesting side-topics (like generators) were mentioned.

Code on slides was very easy to read (something a lot of presenters miss out on!), and providing the zip file helped to follow it along the way.

Very enlightening and a great start to the event!

A entertaining and informative talk on on open source history and why open source is so important.
I really enjoyed it and I started with a CoCo2 with only 16K :-)

Very informative. Good job!

Definitely able to keep up, good pace, probably could have given some more examples, like how to deploy from local to production (free on Heroku, maybe?)

Although I rate this tutorial highly, it still needs work. It was very difficult to follow along when I got behind. It would have been very useful if there was a document that had all the downloads required and any terminal commands to be executed. And the instructions for setting up the download site for the mobile app.
